Grounding Kit

i have been reading about grounding kits, and as I understand it would smooth out the ruff gear switching on 03.5 5AT.. smoother faster, overal better. Now which one is the best?

I know it costs a lot more, but get Gorgees grounding gear. You can PM him from here. I don't think I have seen a single person that didn't think his stuff was the best.

Gordgee's 10 wire! May cost more but the customer service is outstanding if you have any questions. Get a Hepa cabin filter from him while you're at it.

I've heard the same thing but it sems like you really have to go the extra mile to get the money there.

I hate to say it but I am a spoiled online shopper.

How come you don't have a kit then?

definately go with the Gordgees kit instead of a stillen or nismo one and make sure you get the 10 wire since you have an AT. I have an 04.5 AT and when it was in manumatic it shifted like crap. Once i put the grounding kit on it really cleaned it up and lowered my idle. I'm not positive, but I believe the 10 wire is somewhere between 110 and 130 bucks, its been a while since i bought mine though so i'm not sure.

You'd really buy a $3 grounding system for your $30k car? Why not just use Wrigley's Spearment Gum wrappers for your grounding (like MacGuiver)... . Gord's 10-wire system for the 5AT when I purchased it over a year ago was $130 plus $14 for S&H.

Totally. Wouldn't you rather give the $127 in profit to Gord instead of putting it in your own pocket? Consider it a site donation.

I had Gord's wires on my 03 5AT for about 3 weeks. I noticed no change in shift response. I'm in the minority though.
